The University of Tulsa is an NCAA Division I member for all sports and a member of the American Athletic Conference. TU moved into The American on July 1, 2014 after dominating Conference USA with more than double the number of league championships than any other conference school in nine years as a C-USA member.

Since the opening of the Donald W. Reynolds Center in 1998, Tulsa’s athletic facilities have undergone a major facelift. New facilities include the Michael D. Case Tennis Center, the Collins Family Softball Complex, the Hurricane Soccer and Track Stadium, the J. Bird Sr. Shell Nest, the Jack Zink Indoor Rowing Center, the Case Athletic Complex and major renovation to H.A. Chapman Stadium.

The Tulsa men's soccer team dropped a 2-1 decision to 20th-ranked SMU on Wednesday night at the Hurricane Soccer and Track Stadium. TU fell to 4-6 on the season and 0-2 in Conference USA, while SMU moved to 6-4 overall and 1-1 in the league.

"I thought we started out really well and combined well," Head Coach Tom McIntosh said. "We scored a really nice goal off a combination play, but our midfield in the last 25 minutes of the first half struggled and turned the ball over. This is definitely something to learn from. Overall we fought back in the second half and the guys didn't give up so that was great to see. Both goalkeepers came up with big saves and unfortunately we didn't quite find the back of the net to get the equalizing goal, but that is how it goes."

Corey Albertson put the Golden Hurricane on the board and earned his second goal of the season at the 6:42 mark off an assist from Stephen Roberson. Diogo de Almeida evened the score in the 26th minute off a rebound attempt taken by Arthur Ivo, and then just under four minutes later Juan Castillo scored the go-ahead goal from 15 yards out up the middle.

TU played a man down after Blaine Gonsalves received two yellow cards, his second at the 63:54 mark, but SMU's Ian Kalis earned his second yellow card on the day in the 66th minute to even the playing field. Jake Dobkins was issued a red card after a penalty in the box, leaving just nine players on the field for Tulsa at the 68:12 mark.

Michael Murray came up with a big save on the penalty kick attempt to keep the game at 2-1, but neither team found the back of the net in the remainder of the contest.
